    [QUOTE="semi" retired;4415067]Hi EZ, great to hear. I wish you the best of luck. The best thing about moving out of an old truck, is you are going to some place better.:thumbup:[/QUOTE]

    10-4 on that! Thanks for the well wishes my friend!
    I'm kind of excited to get started with them...And a step up in equipment for sure!
    Plus no worries about my fuel card not working....lol!

    I got to say my old boss made sure my pay was in my account this morning. He is a stand up guy.

    I did my fair share of job hopping over on the LTL side. Then I finally realized, LTL sucks too! :)
     
    EZ Money Thanks this.

    Good thing is that the new job is about 50% or more drop and hook and 95% dedicated customers...WAY better than what I was running.
    It was 100% broker loads through Coyote.....All that waiting at shippers and receivers should be about gone with the new job.
    Plus they have local guys to deliver the loads coming back so the road drivers can get it done!
     
    Big Don Thanks this.

    Midwest,southeast and very little northeast.....NO NY!
    They have 2 big accounts in Ohio, Florida and Alabama.

    They have accounts that get 10 or more loads a week and many are light.
    Reefer and dry freight.

    After pulling beer and all the waiting at Budweiser and Miller-Coors this should be better.
    I was hauling heavy loads every trip...42k or more all the time.

    I will know more Monday on the specific customers.....No big deal on reefer freight.
    I have done that many times.
     
    Numb Thanks this.

    so instead of wearing your clown suit of cowboy boots and stupid big old cowboy hat (yeew haaw) and that big old belt buckle that said I am a big old super trucker
    you gave up making your family over $70000 a year and being home regularly to enjoy life with your family to be out here complaining about rookies and freight rates and not making any money???

    Everyone says to go with a small company, but then you hear of this crap happening so often with these small companies, but those of us who want to have the financial security of a larger company are treated like we have a disease.
